Chapter 162 She was bullied in the office by other girls
The news of Joey’s pregnancy spread itself. It soon reached Allen’s parents and Joey’s parents. Mrs.
Linderman told Vivian about it and Ben Hawk knew it too. Soon everyone connected to Allen and Joey
knew it, of whom some were happy, some were worried, while others were jealous and resentful.
Joey stayed in the hospital for two days before she insisted that she should go back to thepany.
Even if Allen had asked his brother Lawrence for ten months’ leave on behalf of Joey, she would have
to finish the work handover with her recement, since she would be away for so long a time.

Allen finally agreed and drove her to thepany. Only this time, he had made up his mind not to let
her out of his sight for a second.
During the work handover, her recement, a new pretty secretary asionally sneaked a nce at
Allen, because he was too handsome to not pay attention to.
However, he couldn''t take his eyes off Joey the whole time as an attentive boyfriend. He wasn’t aware
of his new admirer at all.
Joey eventually gave in.
She was ready to settle for a simple work handover, because the new girl wouldn’t pay much attention
to her anyway. Moreover, the girl was staring at Allen in a way that really annoyed her.
Joey had to admit that she had be less generous and easygoing than before since she got
pregnant. She was more irritable more.
She would have simplyughed about the new secretary peeking at Allen if she weren’t pregnant. It
was only natural for a new girl in the office to admire a young, rich and handsome man. But Joey
couldn’t help feeling jealous.
Allen’s presence had also drawn the attention of other girls in the office, including Faith, Miranda,
Yvonne and Vivian.
The only difference was that Vivian was insanely jealous while the other three girls were happy for
Joey.
When Vivian had stolen Ben Hawk from Joey, she’d most love to see Joey devastated and rejected by
any other men in the world. What she hadn’t expected was that instead of being unable to recover after
a nasty breakup, Joey had quickly found herself a nice and considerate man who was way much better
than Ben Hawk.
Vivian hated the fact that she had always picked up others’ leftovers, Joey’s fiancé Ben Hawk and the
married man Quentin. Even worse, the two of them had been sleeping with other women. She believed
that she deserved better men.
Sitting in her chair, Vivian red at Joey who was being taken very good care of by Allen.
Faith mocked Vivian’s burning jealousy, “Vivian, how do you feel? Jealous or hateful? Well, you’d better
tone it down a little.”
Miranda said, “Yes indeed. What a petty and jealous girl! You know, there is always someone else who
is doing better than you in the world.”
Yvonne chimed in, “I guess a sour loser is the worst.”
The three girls had always been pissed at Vivian at work and they finally got a good opportunity to
Yvonne had hit the nail on the head. Vivian was certainly a sour loser.
As they say, nothing could be kept secret forever in this world. They might not have caught Vivian
cheating with Quentin. But they could recognize an office love affair when they saw one. The dynamic
between Vivian and Quentin had aroused their suspicion long ago.
However, they hadn’t told anyone else about it, because they didn’t want to lose their well-paid jobs.
But they had despised Vivian even more. They wouldn’t let a day go by without making fun of Vivian.
Vivian trembled with anger when she was bullied by the girls. But she could do nothing but re at
them. She knew that she was no match to the three of them. In this case, any attempt to fight back was
doomed to fail.
Standing not far away, Joey had been watching it all.
But she didn’t step in. After what Vivian had done to her, she would be merciful if she didn’t kick Vivian
when she was down.
